MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Basic Care of Your Home Blood Pressure Kit

With proper care, your Home Blood Pressure Kit will provide many years of reliable service. To insure a well functioning unit, follow these basic rules:

Handle the pressure manometer with care. Do not drop or jar. The needle should indicate zero when cuff is fully deflated.

Always deflate cuff before storing.

Avoid hitting objects against surface of stethoscope.

Store all items, including instruction booklet, in the convenient storage case provided.

A&D Medical has checked your blood pressure unit to assure reliability and accuracy prior to shipment. However, as with any sensitive instru- ment subject to repeated use, we recommend your blood pressure unit be checked periodically for proper calibration to ensure accurate blood pressure readings.

CHECKING FOR ACCURACY

How to Check your Home Blood Pressure Kit for Accuracy

1. Detach manometer from bladder tube. Hold manometer in a vertical position.

2.If the needle on the dial rests within the zero indicator on the face plate, your unit is guaranteed to be accurate.

3.If the needle rests outside the zero indicator, it should be recalibrated.

4.To recalibrate, insert the small screwdriver into the hose connector end of the manometer. Turn the screw driver in either direction without going all the way around the dial to get the needle back to the zero indicator.

5.If the unit cannot be recalibrated using this method, please contact A&D Medical at 1-888-726-9966.

Two-Year Calibration Warranty

A&D Medical warrants, to the first retail purchaser of the Manometer (the Product), free accuracy adjustment for a period of two years if the Product becomes inaccurate under normal conditions of use. See enclosed warranty card for complete details.
